Russia is Struggling with a Shitty Problem. Literally.

Most of those that believe in the change over to communism think they'll be the ones in charge (on the plane full of groceries)
I remember a story about one of the Russian Cosmonauts speaking with Yuri Gagarin about how unsafe he felt the rockets were. He died on his next flight.
It's 1961. The Soviet Union has launched the first man into space. A Ukrainian peasant, standing on top of a hill, shouts over to another peasant on another hill to tell him the news. "Mykola!" "What!" "The Russians have flown to space!" "All of them?" "No, just one." "So why are you bothering me, then?"
LMAO, exactly, especially the critical thinkers, because then, their opinions will now matter, JFC
I've always known that if you were a sailor or submariner serving in the USSR and you see a leak or crack in a pressure hull, that is pretty much death for you. If you report the crack, they'd simply tell you that the crack does not exist because the State's engineering prowess knows no faults, and you'd be forcibly institutionalized and disappeared, OR, you keep your mouth shut and prepare for a watery grave when that crack bursts open while underwater.
Insightful video. There are so many parallels to the current US govt. There is no Hubris that exceeds the laws of physics.
A Chukcha sits on the shore of the Bering Strait. An American submarine surfaces. The American captain opens the hatch and asks: "Which way is Alaska?" The Chukcha points his finger: "That way!" "Thanks!" says the American, shouts "South-South-East, bearing 159.5 degrees!" down the hatch and the submarine submerges. Ten minutes later, a Soviet submarine emerges. The soviet captain opens the hatch and yells to the Chukcha: "Where did the American submarine go?" The Chukcha replies: "South-South-East bearing 159.5 degrees!" "Don't be a smart-ass", says the captain, "just point your finger!"
typical Russian incompetence. The Europeans call them 'Russian pigs' not out of chauvenism, but because stereotypical slovenliness is a fact. The joke goes:Russia is Struggling with a Shitty Problem. Literally.

A Frenchman, a Japanese, and a Russian are captured by aliens. The aliens lock them in sealed cells and demand that they amaze their captors using two steel balls – the winner will be released, the others will be executed. A week later, the Frenchman demonstrates a juggling trick with the balls. The Japanese has created a rock garden. However the Russian is declared the winner: he broke one ball, and lost the other.
get to know some russians or former soviet union people , you will find the media narrative as all bullshit. Think the media lies about conservatives but tells the truth about russians? Really? President ratings are in the shitter, a good war story picks up most presidential ratings ... (but so far bidens hasnt swung around).
Incompetence? Thats really ignorant. Have you not see their technology in rockets hypersonic) , and the AK47 just keeps working ... and where i work some of the smartest people in the company (Microsoft). So dont buy into the bullshit.

No sewage system and living like a third world country, not unlike the villages in bush Alaska.It's not a whole lot different today. Bernie, Warren, AOC and the rest of these numbskulls and their minions are welcome to it.Russia is Struggling with a Shitty Problem. Literally.

^^^ This is very true...
I really liked all the Russians I have met. A couple I have stayed friends with.
They are a people who should have come much further in the world... Smart, inventive. Great mathematicians and scientists and engineers and physicists.
The point of the story is what Communism and totalitarianism can do to an otherwise great people.
And why the little hemp-addled retards who think socialism and communism are so 'dreamy' are mentally-deranged. The only people who Communism benefit are the bosses... who are better at lining their pockets than any gilded age American Robber baron. Right Bernie? With all your houses and your millions? You socialist putz. Yeah... the only person to get rich off Bernie's Democratic Socialism... is Bernie and his cronies.
